Stay Cool This Summer with NissanConnect Remote Climate Control

As temperatures rise across the UK, getting into a hot car before setting off can quickly turn even a short journey into an uncomfortable experience. That's why Nissan has designed its intelligent NissanConnect technology to help drivers enjoy a cooler, more comfortable start to every journey.

Available on Nissan's latest all-electric models, NissanConnect allows you to cool your vehicle's cabin remotely before you leave home, making summer driving more enjoyable whether you're commuting to work, heading out on the school run or setting off on a family holiday.

Which Nissan models feature remote climate control?

Customers choosing one of the latest Nissan electric vehicles can benefit from remote climate control via the NissanConnect app, including:

  • All-New Nissan MICRA
  • All-New Nissan LEAF
  • Nissan ARIYA
  • Nissan Townstar Electric

Using the NissanConnect smartphone app, owners can activate the vehicle's climate control instantly or schedule it to operate automatically before their regular journeys.

If your Nissan EV is connected to a charger, the energy required to cool the cabin is taken directly from the mains electricity supply rather than the vehicle's battery. This helps preserve driving range while ensuring your vehicle is ready to go with a comfortable interior temperature.

Why use NissanConnect remote climate control?

Remote climate control offers several everyday benefits:

  • Arrive to a cooler, more comfortable cabin on warm summer days.
  • Reduce the discomfort of entering a vehicle that's been parked in direct sunlight.
  • Help maintain your electric driving range when pre-conditioning while charging.
  • Set recurring schedules to match your daily routine.
  • Control your vehicle conveniently from your smartphone.

Whether you're leaving for work early in the morning or preparing for a weekend road trip, NissanConnect helps make every journey more comfortable from the very beginning.

Nissan experts explain the benefits

Elodie Sawruk, Product Manager at Nissan GB, said:

"UK summers can present challenging cabin temperatures for motorists, especially at the start of a journey. Car interiors can heat up quickly, making the first few miles uncomfortable.
"This is where the NissanConnect app comes into its own. By allowing drivers to cool the cabin remotely, we remove that initial discomfort, ensuring a relaxed, safer, and more comfortable start to every trip."

Even greater comfort in the Nissan ARIYA

Drivers choosing the award-winning Nissan ARIYA can enjoy even more premium comfort features.

In addition to smartphone-controlled cabin pre-conditioning, higher-specification ARIYA Evolve models include ventilated front seats. These climate-controlled seats gently circulate cooled air through the seat surfaces, helping both driver and front passenger stay comfortable during warmer weather.

Combined with Nissan's advanced climate control system, ARIYA delivers a refined driving experience whatever the outside temperature.

NissanConnect offers more than remote climate control

The NissanConnect app is designed to make electric vehicle ownership easier every day. Depending on your model, drivers can also:

  • Check battery charge status remotely.
  • View charging history.
  • Locate their vehicle.
  • Access remote vehicle information.
  • Plan journeys more efficiently.

Inside the vehicle, Nissan's latest infotainment systems offer intuitive connectivity, including:

  • Apple CarPlay®
  • Android Auto™
  • Voice-controlled navigation
  • Hands-free calling
  • Media streaming
  • Google built-in on the All-New Nissan LEAF and All-New Nissan MICRA

These connected technologies help keep drivers informed, entertained and connected wherever the road leads.
